Track 1

[Intro

Oh oh

Chorus

These jagged hills keep my secrets tight

They hold my name through the blackest night

Mountain water cold on skin

This is where my life should begin

West Virginia

My West Virginia

Verse 1

Pines press against the glass

Old gravel road where we let the seasons pass

Winding down to the valley

Far from the crowded alley

Chorus

These jagged hills keep my secrets tight

They hold my name through the blackest night

Mountain water cold on skin

This is where my life should begin

West Virginia

My West Virginia

Verse 2

Mist clings to the dark hollows

Tracing paths that only a ghost follows

Lost in the coal smoke

The heavy promise we broke

Bridge

Maybe I stay

Maybe I go

Maybe I pray for the winter snow

Hard rock and iron clay

Keep the modern world away

Chorus

These jagged hills keep my secrets tight

They hold my name through the blackest night

Mountain water cold on skin

This is where my life should begin

West Virginia

My West Virginia

Post-Chorus

Way up high

Way up high

High in the pines

Way up high

Where the moon shines

Chorus

These jagged hills keep my secrets tight

They hold my name through the blackest night

Mountain water cold on skin

This is where my life will begin

West Virginia

My West Virginia
